[Tex/LaTex] How to install cjk font to ubuntu LaTeX

cjkUbuntu

I found online a LaTeX template for a Chinese CV. There is a line of code:

\usepackage[adobefonts]{cjk}

The error is that cjk.sty not found.

So it seems that I need to install such package. However I am a beginner of Ubuntu and have no idea on how to install such font. Does anyone know how to install it?

sudo apt-get install latex-cjk-all can solve your problem

The most straightforward you can do is to open Synaptic package manager, or Ubuntu software center, or whatever other distro manager you have and look for a system package which enhances your TeX distribution with packages you need.
The second option you have is to get the packages you need from CTAN, install (unpack) them into your LOCALTEXMF tree and rerun texhash so that your TeX will find them. This however might sound easier than it is for more complex packages, fonts, bibliography styles, etc.
The last option, is to download and install the latest TeXLive distribution, where you would have tlmgr and friends. If you have a good network connection and enough space on your disk, just go with the full installation.

Personally, I very much recommend to go with the last option, that is the full TeXLive install from scratch. The point is that Ubuntu still ships TeXLive 2009 packages, while recently TeXLive 2012 came out. Going with the most recent distro will ensure that you will have all the new things done in XeTeX, or LuaTeX which might be of your interest, since as you speak you are after non-latin fonts/encodings and such.

Before doing the full TeXLive install, do not forget to purge the Ubuntu TeXLive 2009 installation, otherwise the two will clash.

Have you tried this in a terminal?

$ sudo apt-cache search texlive french
 texlive-doc-fr - TeX Live: French documentation
 texlive-lang-french - TeX Live: French

$sudo apt-get install texlive-lang-french

This example should work in a well installed TeX Live:

\documentclass[french,11pt]{article}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\begin{document}
\section*{L'histoire de la France au Moyen Âge}
L'histoire de la France au Moyen Âge se 
caractérise par plusieurs périodes et événements 
marquants durant dix siècles: de Clovis à 
Charles VIII, en passant par la fin de la 
Gaule romaine quand elle se détache de 
l'Empire romain, la guerre de Cent Ans, 
l'unification de la Gaule qui, au terme d'une
longue genèse, deviendra un État spécifique, 
le Royaume de France. Celui-ci apportera l'essor
 du christianisme, des campagnes, de la 
 population française, la renaissance 
 urbaine accompagnée par l'apparition 
 et l'affirmation des universités, la 
 formation de la langue française et 
 le développement du commerce (foires 
 et marchés).
